Experimental evaluation of the effects of commercial additive (plant extracts) as an alternative to growth-promoting antibiotics in broiler chickens
The findings suggest that carvacrol and cinnamaldehyde-based PFAs may serve as viable alternatives to GPAs, promoting growth performance and gut health in broiler chickens. Further research is needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of action and confirm these preliminary results in larger-scale studies.
